He arrived in Britain in 1944 (some reports in 1942, considering his first credited speaking stage appearance on London's West End in the 1942 production of 'The Petrified Forest') and within a couple of weeks got a job with the BBC broadcasting to the Caribbean and Africa. No one taught him to sing or act he was a natural and made 1,000's of radio broadcasts and television appearances. One of his first stage roles was in 'Showboat' when he was compared to Paul Robeson.

He hadn't intended to be an actor but during the war he hated his job as a kitchen porter at the Strand Corner House so he took the opportunity to play a walk on part in a West End revival of the musical 'Chu Chin Chow'. From there he was given a small speaking part in 'The Petrified Forest' in 1942. Although untrained he had little difficulty in finding regular acting roles but conscious of his inexperience took speech and singing lessons under Amanda Ira Aldridge, the daughter of Shakespearean actor Ira Aldridge. Gaining experience acting in over 70 repertory productions around the country in five years he then made his film debut in 1951 in Pool of London (1951).

Earl Cameron was born on August 8, 1917 in Pembroke, Bermuda.
